Gilbert Burns, a former contender for the UFC welterweight belt, said that Jorge Masvidal refuses to fight him. According to the Brazilian, he was told that this fight would take place first on November 12, then on December 10, but, in the end, he breaks down.
“You just have to be honest. Let him honestly state the reason for refusing to fight: you just don’t want to fight, you need more time, he wants to wait for McGregor, or legal cases related to Covington interfere. Whatever it is, just be honest."
Recall that in his last fight, Burns lost by unanimous decision to Khamzat Chimaev.
